WAR INJUN (Tribal Eulogy) CD

It is no secret that I'm a huge fan of the Maryland heavy rock/doom scene. The creative potential of that scene is amazing, because there are no musical restrictions. Led by bands like Asylum/Unorthodox and The Obsessed, the musicians were always open for different musical influences ranging from ...

WHEEL (s/t) LP/CD

My first encounter with WHEEL was at last year's Days of Doom show in Dortmund. I'm sorry to say, but my enthusiasm remained limited. The reason for this was vocalist Arkadius Kurek, whose dramatic and super emotional style is definitely not my cup of tea. So I was ...

WOLFBANE (s/t) CD

The NWOBHM movement is like a huge treasure chest. Apart from all the well-known and successful bands, there have been hundreds of unknown and obscure bands who never achieved a breakthrough. One of these groups who were less fortunate than others is WOLFBANE, and if there wouldn't be Shadow ...

WRETCHED (Black Ambience) MCD

Unfortunately, Maryland's WRETCHED belongs to the Hellhound bands that, so far, are paid less attention by a wider circle. The reason for this is beyond me. With Jeff Parsons (ex-Unorthodox/ex-Indestroy) they have an excellent guitarist in their lineup, and their heavy sound is characterised by various influences that is ...

WITCHFIELD (Sleepless) LP/CD

After unpacking the latest promo package of Black Widow Records, I noticed immediately this album due to the band name. The fact is that I'm quite allergic to all names including 'Witch', 'Black', 'Wizard' and so on. Once they were original, but chosing one of this words for your band ...

WINO (Punctuated Equilibrium) CD

Just like Kelly Carmichael, guitarist of Internal Void/ex-Pentagram, Scott 'Wino' Weinrich is the next musician from the Maryland, DC heavy rock scene who releases his first solo album after the demise of The Hidden Hand. 'Punctuated Equilibrium' is a reflection of Wino's previous work, but it also shows the current position ...

WILDILDLIFE (Six) CD

If you think that everything has been said and done in the world of rock, than you don't know WILDILDLIFE from San Francisco, USA. Maybe their mothers have been taken so much mushrooms and other psychoactive substances at Haight-Ashbury in 1967, that a lot of that stuff has been pumped through ...

WALLKEEPER (Authistic Cults) MCD-R

Hailing from Mülheim a.d. Ruhr, Germany, WALLKEEPER‘s ‘Authistic Cults‘ is one single instrumental track with a total running time of almost fourteen minutes. Somewhere between abstract noise and heavy analogue manipulation, WALLKEEPER creates a restless hypnotic drone, that is expertly executed. One of the most interesting aspects about this self-released song ...

WARNING (Watching From A Distance) CD

It doesn't happen very often, that an album isn't available anymore shortly after its release, but in the case of WARNING this is exactly what happened. Everyone who's aware of the musical qualities from this group should know that something like this wasn't a real surprise. First 'Watching From A Distance' ...

WARNING (The Strength To Dream) CD

Finitely everyone can breathe a sigh of relief, who had no chance to buy the first album from WARNING until now, 'cause Cyclone Empire reissued this monumental masterpiece in 2008. That was badly necessary, because 'The Strength To Dream' belong to one of the best Doom Metal-albums whichhas been recorded in ...
